Added two more thin CF supports to the front on the current build. Really seems to make a difference so far -- may have to do for all future builds!

Cool,another slick?

Ted and I got some flying done on Sunday, was quite nice out.
Was flying the 42 when I had a lockout in a tumble. All surfaces were stuck
at full deflection which ended up being a good thing. It just kindof flatspinned
into the ground.Landed just across the street in the dirt. Ripped a wing out, fixed in about 20 minutes.
The ar6110 receiver has a red blinking light for signal loss,and a orange light
for power loss, mine was blinking red. Hmmm
Sealed the hinge gaps on the 59 for curiosity, made a big difference on
high speed roll rate. Little better on elevator.
Ted was ripping it up with the Laser, looking to be a pretty sweet plane.
Dad turned 69 today, woohoo

I was at the car race place today. You sit and talk a lot (reminds me of club fields to some degree -- ha), but I got some good laps in today. Had been "fighting" the set up the last few weeks (proabably like heli set up when you don't have your personal friend/expert -- KEVIN, THAT'S YOU-- around to help with that stuff...) -- but made some progress today. I was pretty happy!

Yep, my GS 58" Edge. Had some issues though: Kontronik 55 A ESC is apparently not enough as motor would cut out on full throttle. Lost an SFG and two screws (thanks to Ben and Phil on retrieval), and unless I have some binding those airtronic servo's may not be worth a darn. My ailerons had some pretty significant centering issues now and again. They seemed to work ok for a bit, then would not center one way, then the other.

I get some pics on the ground which were usable if not great (again shutter was too slow)... I did bring out the full Edge lineup today.
